picking up on what you were talking about, congress may be having trouble avoiding the fiscal cliff. but they might be able to skirt the dairy cliff. the u.s. farm bill could keep milk prices from surging next year. it would keep a subsidy from coming back to life when the current farm bill expires today. under a 1949 law, the usda would be forced to buy milk at prices well above what farmers are getting now as the subsidies provide. that could push prices up to twice the national average of $3.12 a gallon. meanwhile, several big banks have reportedly close to a $10 billion settlement with the regulators to end the government's efforts to hold them liable nor bad foreclosure practices. "the new york times" reports nearly 40% of the settlement would dw to people who already lost their homes. in february, five banks agreed to a $25 billion settlement. the times says 14 are involved in this round of talks as well. as part of the deal, which could come this week, the banks will have to hire independent consultants to go through those loan records. >> back over to you and happy new year t
